Salt Substitutes

[Debi2007]

I am wondering if anyone can recommend a tried and true salt substitute that actually tastes like salt. I am a salt addict and have been my whole life. I love the taste and have never had problems with high blood pressure or anything like that. Now that I am 40, I notice that I am retaining water like crazy with the salt I eat and I would like to find something comparable that isn't just full of horrible cancer causing chemicals. Any suggestions? Something you have tried that you did or did not like? Thanks!

I see this was posted a while back ago, but in case you are still looking- a lot my family uses sea salt. Its not too bad, but nothing is as good as real salt.

Take care

I haven't tried it but I know there's something called "Half Salt", from Morton I think - half salt, half potassium. Since potassium is sometimes helpful when you're eating this way, that might be a good one.

I'd second the sea salt.
